Hi List
We decided to close out of few the meteorites and books we have had in our=20
inventory a while....and some not so long. We also need to raise some cash t=
o=20
cover our Tucson expenses. Since I love the patented Steve Arnold (original)=
=20
reverse auction idea so much I thought I would try it here. I will continue=20=
to=20
lower the price every 1-2 days until I decide to quit. No idea how long or h=
ow=20
low it will go. No idea when it will end. I reserve the right to end the=20
auction at any time. So if you see something you are interested in you might=
 just=20
want to grab it before someone else does.
Shipping is free on purchases over $250. Shipping will be figured at actual=20
cost on orders under $250.
